Y ou know the ones. Slit up the back." "1 bet ya looked swell. I bet ya looked like Sylvia Sydney." "That's a scream! That's what Sam said. He wants to give me some black-satin mules, but 1 told him I wouldn't feel right. T akin' them, I mean." "You got black mules anyway, haven't you?" "Yes. But I wouldn't feel right ac- ceptin' a gift from my husband's brother anyway. It isn't as if it was a stranger. So anyway we kidded for a while, and then I told him he'd have to go home because I had some swel1 new dance records I wanted to play. Well, right off he says he won't go until I dance with him." "Good dancer?" "Swell. I was exhausted. I thought h ' d " e never go. "How'd ya finally get him to go, Eva? " "Well, I just put my foot down. 1 just simply said to him, 1 said: 'Look here, Sam, if you don't leave this very . , mInute, you can t come over tomorrow night.' I mean you gotta be firm when your husband's brother is crazy about you. It's terrihle!" -MARGARET FORD . POESY DEPARTMENT [Fr0711 the El Paso (Texas) Herald Post] so BEER IS BACK Thirty carloads of beer has arrived, No good from it will be derived. This is only the first to be distributed, But the money to it will be contributed When some in the nation need bread They get beer to flow to their head. As some vvere not so very content S b k " ., h . o ac to wet' t e natIon went. The young were going to the bad Is the plea that makes me sad. So they brought back this curse And it is going to make them worse. How foolish to think this is the way To give them more to drink would stay Or curb the desire they have to drink, They will go from bad to worse, I think. Oh, the beer that will be sold And the misery from it will be untold, Because the innocent will have to bear The burdens of the ones who do not care. Of all things beer was needed less, As useful things for the family are best So many are out of work and need pay It is a pity some will drink away. MRS. DON BILBERRY. Barstow, Tex. ".
